It's barely spring, but we're already gearing up for convention season here at Crunchyroll!

Kicking off with our first con, we'll be attending Sakura-Con from March 29-31 in Seattle, Washington! With an impressive Sword Art Online guest list, Crunchyroll will be there to join in on the festivities!

Stop by our booth and sign up for your free, 30-day Premium Anime Membership trial and receive an exclusive Crunchyroll t-shirt that we only give out to convention goers, as well as a raffle ticket for a chance to win fabulous prizes! If you're already a Premium Member, stop by and sign into your account for a t-shirt as well! We will be in the exhibitor's hall in booths 325 and 224 all three days of the convention, and will also be joined by some of our lovely Crunchyroll Ambassadors who are helping out at our booth, so come by, say hi, hang out on our livestream, and have fun!

The first on Friday, March 29, at 1:00pm with SailorBee running our very own Crunchyroll Sword Art Online Cosplay Contest! Bring your very best Sword Art Online cosplay and compete for a chance to win tickets to the super exclusive autograph session with Sword Art Online creator Reki Kawahara!

Our second panel will be our industry panel on Saturday, March 30 at 5:00pm! Join Crunchyroll's very own marketing managers Lugiamania and SailorBee as they talk about what's new and exciting at Crunchyroll! Learn about our titles, new Cruncnhyroll Apps, our Ambassador Program and much more! Want to know what we actually do at the Crunchyroll offices every day!? Make sure you stop by! There might even be sneak peeks at our upcoming shows for the next season, as well as raffle prizes and games, so be sure not to miss it!

As of now rooms have not been assigned, but we will be updating as soon as we know! For more information on Sakura-Con, please visit their website at: www.sakuracon.org.

I will be attending my very first Sakura-con this year, looking forward to checking out the Crunchyroll booth. I have also just started watching SAO, up to episode 16 so far, in preparation for this con
